Are there any hotels left in Memphis?

Seriously, this is your fault cyclone nation! I cannot find a hotel at all. I should of booked way sooner. But seriously, if anyone has recommendations of where to stay outside of Memphis let me know! Myself and 5 others have decided to make the trip, have our tickets but no hotel. Thinking maybe Germantown? But how far is that from Beale Street and what not? Driving wise anyways, I'm not sure how easy it is to get around Memphis or traffic. Thanks

Re: Are there any hotels left in Memphis?

I booked a room last night at the Comfort Suites near the airport (2575 Thousand Oaks Cove). It's closer than Germantown and seems to be a safe area. I got a room for $76.50/night, nonrefundable rate. It's $90 if you want the right to cancel.

I'm a little insulted by your insinuation. I've done my homework, including a good conversation with a former colleague who currently lives just outside Memphis. It's certainly not a lily-white suburb, but it's also not West Memphis. My wife and I aren't afraid of an area that's a little rough around the edges. We've both lived in big cities for years. Read the reviews on TripAdvisor - almost all of the recent ones are very positive. The negative ones mostly gripe about the room quality, not safety. We've always had good experiences with Comfort Suites, and we don't plan on spending much time in the hotel anyway.

To each his own - but I'd appreciate keeping the juvenile insults to yourself.

As far as depth goes though, the combination of White, Woodbury, Olaseni, Basabe, and Uthoff is much better than Niang, Ejim, Edozie, Gibson. Not because of the top 2, but because of the next 2 or 3. -DeanVogs
